Hyundai is issuing a warning related to the seatbelt system in some of its 2026 Palisade models.

In some cars, wiring in the seatbelt for the third-row, left-hand side seat can become damaged when pulled, according to a notice on Transport Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database. The wiring issue can then cause the seatbelt indicator to show that the seatbelt is buckled when it is not.

A seatbelt status indicator that doesn’t work correctly could create confusion. Not wearing a seatbelt increases the risk of injury in a crash,” the notice said.

Some 4,203 vehicles in Canada may be affected by the seatbelt issue.

Hyundai says it will notify affected drivers of the issue in writing and advise them to visit a dealership to have the seatbelt wiring fixed.

Alternatively, drivers can input their vehicle identification number in Hyundai’s online recall lookup website to see if their car is impacted, or call 1-888-216-2626.

Earlier this year, Hyundai recalled thousands of vehicles in the U.S. and Canada and stopped sales of some of its new Palisades due to a different issue that caused some second and third-row power seats not to stop moving when they detected contact with a passenger or an object.

The recall was triggered after a two-year-old child was killed in Ohio.
